[QUOTE="Speartip, post: 458578, member: 23341"] I’m running the same size tires , motor , trans , gear combo as yourself . 2008 JKU Sahara . As the guys pointed out JSCAN. It does help but your in a 4000lb Jeep , dry. 200 HP. 373 Gears 32” tires You will find on inclines even at HWY speeds it will still pop out of OD with JSCAN setup . Depending on severity of hill drop into 3rd , sometimes 2nd. It will do it all day if driving threw the mountains at 80-90kph. . I don’t find it to bothersome as the trans does shift pretty smoothly . But it is a sign of an underpowered vehicle . The only real & correct fix is to compensate with diff gears . I know you said not in the budget and I understand . But if it’s ever a possibility 410 or 4.56 would def help keep it in OD except for the steep hills will probably jump into 3rd on occasion .
